Dora the Explorer: Dora Loves Boots DVD

The holidays seem to make us all warm and fuzzy about those we love. And, apparently Dora is no exception, because the latest Nickelodeon DVD release, Dora the Explorer: Dora Loves Boots, celebrates Dora and Boots’ playful friendship. This DVD contains three new-to-DVD episodes that feature the adventures of Dora and her best friend, Boots.

Here is a list of the episodes, and their synopsis, which can be seen on Dora Loves Boots:
Boots’ First Bike- Boots is really excited because soon he’ll be getting his very first big bike. The Delivery Duck flies in with a postcard of a shiny yellow 2-wheeler bike for Boots. His new bike is finally ready to be picked up and he can’t wait! It’s going to be a series of “first” adventures as Baby Blue Bird takes her first flight, Lil’ Piggy sails on her first pirate ship, and Tico’s baby cousins learn how to safely cross the street and make it to the bike shop.

Bouncy Boots- Boots’ favorite boots are back from the Shoe Shop, but when he tries them on, he starts to bounce. Dora and Boots set off to find his favorite boots on a bouncy adventure past the Giant Gates, then across the Snail Bridge where their French friend Amélie teaches them how to play Escargot — a French Hop-Scotch game. They sing all the way to the Shoe Shop, but will Boots’ shoes be there?

¡Vacaciones!- Dora and Boots are meeting Diego and Baby Jaguar for a night of camping under the stars. Along the way, they run into other friends who are going on vacation too. At the Nutty Forest, Tico and Benny give them a ride on his nut-powered car. Then they help Isa water her vegetable garden before she heads out to the Snowy Mountain. Before they arrive at the Rainforest Campground, Swiper takes their snacks. Diego and Baby Jaguar come to the rescue in a canoe and together retrieve the snacks and row all the way to the Campground.

The Bed Red Chicken’s Magic Wand- The Big Red Chicken is doing magic tricks and he turns Boots into a chicken! When he tries to turn Boots back into a monkey, his beak starts to twitch and he lets out a big sneeze that sends the wand flying off into Magic Land. Big Red Chicken accidentally lands on his wand and breaks it! On the way to the Wand Shop they play a picture puzzle game to go through the Magic Mirrors, a math game to get the Giant Dice to disappear and then do a scarf trick to enter the Wand Shop.
